T5 shoulders for Minji...

Got my T5 shoulders from voidreaver which looks very nice on me.

Equipped 2 +12sta gems and def/dodge enchant (scryers).



Now i have reached the max def mitigation 75%.



Looking to get the Belt of Natural Power now to top up some agility.

Fishing & Cooking finished...

Finished leveling fishing and cooking now and have 375 in both.
Talk about slow fishing the last 50 levels...=P

Also got my 2 darkmoon trinkets with 2 x 51 stamina on and my hp starts
fell very good right now.

We also downed magtheridon again last night on the 2nd try (ninja pull
destroyed the first try) and i got my Chest of Malorne.
This was my 4th Malorne oiece and i can collect the nice set bonus of
1400 Armour extra in Bearform and +30 strength in catform...^^

We started also to clear some trash in SSC to get some epic drops and 2 epic
dropped, a plate boots pattern and some shurikens...
I hope for the wildfury staff to drop so i can replace my old earthwarden...

Magtheridon downed...

Our first Magtheridon kill came the other night after 2 nights of wipes...

Everyone cheered and screamed in the channels and vent...
After some minutes everything calmed down and everyone was waiting for the loot to be pasted
in the raid channel...(I need the tier4 chest most of all and will give me a huge upgrade over clefthoof chest)...its dead silent on vent and in the channel...everyone awaits the paste of the loot...with the knowledge that there is 2 drop of tier4 chest tokens...still silence everywhere and someone writes omg paste loot in raid channel and then without any warning the loot is pasted in raid channel...Chest of the champion, Chest of the Champion and some crap item.

Happiness turns to dust...2 pala,bla,bla tier4 tokens drop...!!!
All the 4 tanks in our guild needs the chest and this was not what we excpected...
OMG! Nerf twin drops of same tokens...if it is not for druids...=)

Leveling fishing and cooking to 300+...

Everyone out there that have power-leveled fishing and cooking understand the thing im going to say now: OMG i hate fishing it is so F... boring... hours of focusing on the small floating device gave me headdache and my eyes couldnt focus any longer due to blue spots appeared in my vision...

So back to the achievement: Fishing 200 and cooking 225 within som hours.
Have to train artisan fishing (Nat in theramore) and cooking (NPC in Gadgestan)
before i can continue the extremely "FUN" fishing again.

Why am i doing this stupid fishing?
Blizzard have implemented a boss "The Lurker Below" in SSC with needs to be fished up
by several raidmembers, thanks blizzard...

No but seriously the thing i want is the cooking recipe for +30sta and +20spi and you need to fish that mats to be able to do it. This is the best Tank food that is easy to get so ill get it too...

over and out...^^

Best dps staff for druids...

Now it seems that the new Arena Maul is better than Terestians strangle staff as
cat dps staff. I will try to save arena points for that one and im currently doing
2vs2 and 5vs5 games as feral druid and it goes quite nice.

Next big issue is when going into SSC tanks need nature and frost resistance.
Warriors got tons of craftable gears in plate with nature and frost resistance but
what do we have in leather???. I really cant remember that i have seen any leather
resistance gear except green ones. Does anyone know if it exists or is it exclusivly for
warroirs to tank hydross?

2 New decks ready to be turned in...

I finally got my 2 decks ready, Vengeance and Madness.
Was missing 1 card only (6 of Furies) for like 1 week but
by pure luck after a kara raid yesterday i just thought that
i check AH for card and badge and there it was, 6 of Furies
for 70g buyout and it was bought in 0.1sec.

Now i have to wait for darkmoon to come to Mulgore at 9th of July
to be able to turn in my decks for the trinkets but meanwhile i
still have to grind for my badge.

Been reading that the event you can do in ogrila is guaranteed a
depleted badge but the event looks very hard according to comments
on different websites.

We now have had 2 nights on Magtheridon with different result and
hopefully we can get some better tries tonight.
SSC is also within reachable distance and hopefully we will go there
for the first time this week...

Balance between Armor, dodge and stamina...

I think this is the most complex thing to master if you dont want 3 different tanking sets. I have 2-3 pieces that i alter when i tank depending on if the boss needs abit more stamina or armor/dodge.

Currently i have these stats selfbuffed in bearform:

Armor = 27450 (72.2% mitigation)
Dodge = 36.5%
HP = 14200
Defense = 422
Critt = 27%

Now we come to the intresting question. What stat should i focus on now?
I would say that i can sacrifice some armor for more dodge and stamina.

I dont have malorne chest yet and that one will be a huge buff for me on both stats and armor.

What is a good armor level? 25000?
What is a good dodge level? 40%?
What is a good hp level? 14500?

Also 415 def is critt immune and then you wonder how much under 415 def can i go when i have 35 recilience to be still critt immune, because the goal is the get rid of the clefthoof set pieces and you have to complement def on other items...preferable not gems...

Maybe there are many of you that could answer these questions and if you know please add a comment if you have time...

New gear and cards...

Yesterday i did some nifty AB and WSG runs to get some badges to be able to buy the new veteran dragonhide bracers. Thou i have pvp:ed alot in the past i got so bored doing these runs so i will make a promise right here and now.
I will never place my foot in a AB run ever again...
AV is still ok fun to do now and then...

The veterans dragonhide bracers is a nice upgrade from Umberhowls collar on stats side but i loose some armor (approx 350).
12 stamina gem + 12 stamina enchant will be fine on those bracers which gives me an total amount of 49 stamina and that is nice for bracers i can tell you.

Im also currently grinding for the depleted badge but no luck so far although i have had 2 depleted drops, back and axe.

My card collection starts to be complete. Right now i only miss 3 cards:
Lunacy
1 2 3 4 5( )7 8
Furies
( )2 3 4 5( )7 8

Im really looking forward to put on these 2 babies for 102 stamina (x1.5 in bearform)

Today we have our first magtheridon raid planned and it will be fun to see what we can achieve there. We have Kara and Gruul on farm so we should be able to kick some butt in there...
